Ply Gem supports Alberta community affected by Fort McMurray wildfire

Calgary, Alberta (May
6, 2016) – In response to the devastating wildfire that has
engulfed Fort McMurray, Alberta and displaced more than 80,000 residents,
exterior building products manufacturer and distributor, Ply
Gem, has immediately stepped in to help the community.

With
Canadian headquarters in Calgary and a distribution branch location in
Edmonton, Ply Gem is providing support through the donation and delivery of personal hygiene products to the Edmonton
Emergency Relief Services. The
products will be distributed to evacuees staying at the Edmonton Expo Centre,
which is serving as a temporary relief and lodging location.

"It’s
impossible to imagine the hardship that the residents of Fort McMurray are
currently experiencing; when we learned of the wildfire and understood the
gravity of the situation, we knew we immediately had to help,” said Joe
Appelmann, President, Ply Gem Canada. "Our team jumped right in by buying and
delivering products, and many Ply Gem associates have even opened up their homes
to those who are displaced. It’s the least we can do to support our friends and
neighbors of this Alberta community.”

Those
wishing to support in the relief efforts can donate to the Alberta Fires Appeal
through the Canadian Red Cross website,
or call 1-800-418-1111. For more information on how to donate and offer
